Hey,

i read on Mo's old hompeage that he used this diet, i.e.

I know - i m not Mo and have another body, but we are all humans...

So: Any experiences with this diet.
I heard its the most spreaded diet for sprinters.

And where can i get the book(great would also be an E-book)

Good book, great diet.

It's not an out there diet. When you sit back and look at it, it makes a lot of sense and it's a pretty easy sell. When we design diets for clients "I'm a personal trainer" we use the 40/30/30 ratio and the people that buy into it always see results.

The cool thing about it is that it's pretty easy to learn and once learned it's simple to stick to because it's not out there like an Atkins or something.

Check on ebay for the book. If you're in the US you can probably easily get it for under $10

THX for your experiences.

Does anybody excist who have the book in ebook format?

You can buy it at Amazon, but i m just a member in germany and have no credit card to pay at amazon.com ...

ebay germany doesnt have the book, so shipping needs a lot of time...

I would also take a look at "Paleo Diet" which have simmilar approach... Berardi uses both of this sutff outlined in his 7 principles of good nutrition articel aviable at t-nation.com... they are pretty simmilar.

pjb you are from germany?

http://www.nl.bol.com/is-bin/INTERSH...&lgl_Section=1

It costs around € 14 (paperback, 25 for the hardback) on this dutch site, and shipping to belgium was € 1,50...

I think that you can understand the most of the site as the language is similar to german/french/english. If you should have problems you can also let me know something

you still need a credit card :s ask someone to buy it for you?

i read the book. its great!

I wanna start with it, but i m concerned about the intake of calories. Its hardy over 1700kcal. Can this work without loosing muscles?

I know about his argumentation(body fat gives the energy) but what about experiences in this detail ?

regards, pjb

ordered the books too but I think Mo etc use the ideas behind it as a base but have a higher calories intake

same ratio: 40-30-30, same type of food but more calories
